Quizplus · Accepted Answer

In a mycorrhiza, the filamentous fungi form a symbiotic relationship with the plant roots, and can significantly increase the plant's uptake of mineral nutrients from the soil, such as nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. They do this by extending their hyphae (thread-like structures) into the soil, where they can access nutrients that are otherwise unavailable to the plant roots. Therefore, choice C is the best answer.
